Long-lasting pulse of high energy radiation swept over Earth.

The extraordinarily long-lasting, record-breaking gamma-ray burst crossed the Earth's trajectory on Sunday, October 9, 2022. The source of that GRB could be just the born black hole that pulled the supernova remnants inside it. That kind of case where a black hole pulls the molecular cloud around the exploded star back into the black hole can form extraordinary long-term GRBs. The knowledge of the GRB is limited. 

Those eruptions remain for a very short time. And they can cause problems for probes and manned spacecraft. If those GRBs are impacting those things. On Earth magnetic field and atmosphere protect people and computers. But in space, there is not that kind of protection. And that means the GRB can be very dangerous. 

But another reason why researchers are researching that phenomenon is that it is the most high-energy reaction in the universe. If researchers can capture the GRB they could create energy for years. 

And there is another thing that can be possible in the future. That thing is the possibility to create synthetic GRB. The form of the GRB is in the material disk around the black hole. The main question is are black holes sending GRBs in one direction? Or are they sending two gamma-ray pikes in opposite directions? 

When that material starts to whirl around the black hole. Its temperature rises because of friction. And sooner or later, that whirl starts to send gamma- or X-rays. The problem is that the gamma rays are forming very close to the event horizon. That kind of whirl is theoretically possible to create by using two plasma rays. 

In the middle of the plasma, whirl will put the plasma pike. Then the plasma whirl will put to orbit that plasma pike. And that thing could increase the speed of the plasma to so high level that it can create the X- or even gamma rays. 

Aiming for those gamma rays is theoretically a very easy thing. A practical solution is not so easy. Shooting those gamma rays by using lasers that thing could make it possible to aim for the highest energy radiation in the universe. The system bases that system adjusts energy levels of the plasma around the gamma rays and aims that thing in a certain direction.

Researchers think that the multiverse is not fiction anymore.

Multiverse means that our universe is one of many universes. The reason why researchers and scientists believe that this is true is that logical. About 50 years ago people didn't know that there were other solar systems. Exoplanets were only theories in the 80's.  About 400 years ago people thought that our Sun was the only star in the universe. Edvin Hubble proved that our galaxy, Milky Way is one of many galaxies. Then researchers found that galaxies form groups, and supergroups. That means that today we think that the universe, where we live is the ultimate supergroup of galactic supergroups. And logically thinking there should be other universes. We believe that the universe began its existence in an event or series of events called the Big Bang. That event did not begin, because the energy that formed material should come from somewhere. The Big Bang was not one "bang" or explosion. It was a series of events where material took form. Or the energy level that it h...

Spinning cylinders prove a 50-year-old physics problem.

"Scientists at the University of Southampton have experimentally proven the Zel’dovich effect by amplifying electromagnetic waves using a spinning metal cylinder, confirming a theoretical prediction from the 1970s and opening new avenues in technology and quantum physics.

Using relatively simple equipment – a resonant circuit interacting with a spinning metal cylinder – and by creating the specific conditions required, we have now been able to do this.” (ScitechDaily, 50-Year-Old Physics Theory Proven for the First Time With Electromagnetic Waves) Researchers amplified electromagnetic waves using spinning metal cylinders.

What makes it hard to create a room-temperature superconductor?

"The discovery of wave-like Cooper pairs in Kagome metals introduces a new era in superconductivity research, offering potential for innovative quantum devices and superconducting electronics, driven by theoretical predictions and recent experimental validations. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Kagome Metals Unlocked: A New Dimension of Superconductivity) "Superconductivity is a set of physical properties observed in superconductors: materials where electrical resistance vanishes and magnetic fields are expelled from the material. Unlike an ordinary metallic conductor, whose resistance decreases gradually as its temperature is lowered, even down to near absolute zero, a superconductor has a characteristic critical temperature below which the resistance drops abruptly to zero. An electric current through a loop of superconducting wire can persist indefinitely with no power source" (Wikipedia, Superconductivity) Theoretically, a superconducting electric circu...
